An administrative court in Osnabrück, Germany, has refused an urgent application by a company to transport 448 breeding cattle from Messingen in Emsland to Benslimane in Morocco. The district of Emsland had initially rejected the application, citing violations of European law. The transport's lengthy journey time, with required rest breaks, was identified as the main issue, as it contradicts the requirement to keep animal transport times as short as possible. The transporter's failure to provide a second driver or to comply with other general conditions also contributed to the application's rejection. The verdict is not yet final.
